cambpanther 172 Posted April 8, 2016 With the way our team is built we should always have a high scoring reserve.. unfortunately that didnt happen tonight and it cost us big. Well done to Sheffield, looked more up for it than the panthers in first half of meeting and deserved to win. Hopefully this result will make the team realise they need to put maximum effort in as some looked like they couldnt be bothered tonight. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Â Standing at the back has been an issue for a few years although seemingly ignored and not fully enforced. A new season and a new push on the issue. Wouldn't most speedway fans give their right arm for a free seat, right next to the action in a 2200 seater stand? I appreciate that some people like to stand but there are plenty of other options to do that. It's not a big issue going to cost you anything so why should it part of the season ticket T&Cs. If you're a regular you'd know about the situation. If not you'd just sit down or stand elsewhere. More often than not officials are jobsworth types so you have to allow them their power trip.

proud panther 1,505 Posted April 9, 2016 Well done Sheffield, better team on the night by far. Who is the idiot start marshall this year ? Constantly walking in front of the riders when they are ready to race to call another rider forward. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Panthers89 1,922 Posted April 9, 2016 Well done Sheffield, better team on the night by far. Who is the idiot start marshall this year ? Constantly walking in front of the riders when they are ready to race to call another rider forward. Glad I wasn't the only one thinking that, yeah call them forward but bugger me so picky come the end, pulling riders forward a couple inches, pathetic. Don't help the ref was holding the tapes for ages in first few heats! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheScotsman 2,482 Posted April 9, 2016 Do they not have the extra start line which the front hubs must be above? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crazyb 156 Posted April 9, 2016 The health and safety ruling is something the Panthers have to agree to it's showground landlords who are imposing the rule and threat of violence will only get you thrown out or possibly banned. It's not the Showground, it's the new H & S crew that Panthers put in place Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brian 63 Posted April 9, 2016 Who is the idiot start marshall this year ? Constantly walking in front of the riders when they are ready to race to call another rider forward. Â The hub of the front wheel should be over the second white line and it's the start marshals job to ensure the riders are in line. Doesn't make him an idiot, it's him doing the job properly. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tony501 11 Posted April 9, 2016 It was a very disappointing evening, I expected better from the Panthers. Tigers were by far the better team and deserved to win. The starter was pernickety and irritating from the beginning. Overall a dismal first home meeting of the season for me. I hope for better at Scunny on Sunday. Â Also, I sympathise with the people who wish to stand on the back straight and see nothing wrong with them complaining about it. They are Panthers supporters and deserve better than having their wishes ignored and being rudely spoken to by H&S or security men who don't give a damn about speedway or Peterborough Panthers. The comments from some about "it's not worth being concerned about" or "get over it" are both patronising and insulting. They should have more respect for their fellow Panthers supporters.

wealdstone 3,454 Posted April 9, 2016 As far as I am aware the health and safety issues emanate from the Showground not the Speedway Promotion( perhaps we could be enlightened) Â Annoying as some of these rules and regulations can be it is a symptom of our times when people sue at the drop of a hat and Gladstone Brookes are setting up sub offices on every street corner. It may be that they are sharing the supporters club hut to process compensation claims as the happen. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
